We would like to congratulate fourth graders Mia Schuler and Evan Sohmer for their excellence on the Milan American Legion Flag Education assessment. Each student received a certificate and cash award from Walt Ruggles of the Milan American Legion.

Thanks to Candice Feller for her kind heart and thoughtful project. She orchestrated a hat and glove drive and donated enough warm hats and gloves for every student to be set for these colder temperatures. MES students were thrilled to receive these thoughtful gifts. Thank you!

Our MES cafe was magical today as we enjoyed yummy food and live music from retired MES teacher, Mr. Lockwood, and his friends. Some students loved getting the extra bonus of eating with an MES staff member. ❤️💚

Our school nurses received a very generous monetary donation along with socks and underwear from local community members Sheri Cunningham and Connie Shadday. Their "Boxers and Bloomers" project positively contributes to our Milan students and we appreciate them. Thank you!
